The economy makes a campaign comeback

Jobs and the economy are top of François Hollande's agenda - as he tries to make his voice heard amid Sarkozy's rush for far-right National Front voters.

Les Echos sizes up the two candidates' plans to cut France's sky-high jobless rate - and says neither of them will make much difference.

L'Express accuses Sarkozy of putting pressure on firms to delay layoffs until after the election to avoid embarrassing him - while Libération says his right-wing rhetoric is alienating a lot of his own party.
